Connecting a Canon GL2 to Prem v5.5 on a current Macbook Pro?

I have the following: Canon GL2 camera, Adobe Premiere 5.5 and a 15-inch Macbook Pro w/Retina Display. I need to capture recordings from the camera into Premiere. Which cable or combination of cables (if any) will allow me to do so? The GL2 has a DV in/out port and a USB but I last used the camera several Mac generations ago when Firewire ports were common. Those days are over, sadly. Can I get from DV in/out to one of the new connections on my Macbook Pro?
Thanks in advance.

Do you mean that, since the Macbook Pro no longer has a Firewire connection, I can no longer capture video in 5.5 on my Mac?
There are adapters available which may work.
Thanks,

  • What connection options do I have in transfer of data from my macbook pro 13" to my iMac

    What connection options do I have in transfer of data from my MacBook Pro 13" to my iMac?

    If available, use a Firewire cable and put the origin in Target Disk Mode.  That's how I rescued all my stuff, all 150GB of it, from my now dead Early '08 MBP to my current one.
    With the new crop, I believe you can use the Thunderbolt ports as well.

  • Hi - How do I connect an HDTV as a second monitor to Thunderbolt display with macbook pro in clamshell mode?

    I have a Late 2011 Macbook Pro in clamshell mode connected to a Thunderbolt Display with the built in Thunderbolt cable. I want to then connect an HDTV via the Thunderbolt port at the back of the Thunderbolt display. I already had a  cable that I thought would work which turns out to be a MiniDisplay port to HDMI cable and therefore not compatible with Thunderbolt to Thunderbolt (Mini DisplayPort not being the same technology although it uses the same port - although I'm not an expert !!) So far a web search has provided me with the only solution being using a Thunderbolt dock or storage that has multiple Thunderbolt ports and then  using that to daisychain inbetween the Thunderbolt Diplay and the HDTV. The cheapest solution I can find for this would be about £250. Surely not ??!!!!
    Many thanks for any comments - Nik

    You could also use aThunderbolt dock with HDMI, such as:

  • I'm trying to recover the network password for my Time Capsule so that I can connect another device (a PC) to it.  I have my Macbook pro set to connect automatically and the password is hidden.  How can I find out what it is.

    My issue is that I'm trying to connect a PC to my wireless network run off of a Time capsule/airport router.  My macbook pro connects fine but the network password is hidden and set to autoconnect.  I thought I wrote the password down but when I try to connect the PC laptop and type in the timecapsule network PW is doesn't work.  Trying to verify if the passwird I wrote down is correct but there doesn't seem to be a way to recover this.
    Does anyone out there in the community know how to do this? (or do I just have to do a reset on the time capsule

    Reset the TC.

  • [HELP!!!]iCloud, Mac appstore not connecting, ever since I  move to china bot in ipad and macbook pro

    since I move to china a week ago i realize base on my personal experience that the country is definitely no mac friendly, which is unfortunate for me since i own a macbook pro, iphone and ipad, and i tell you why. ever since i move to china it seems that most of internet related services that apple offer in the mountain lion seemed to be useless, firstly, I can't connect to the mac app store, secondly, i can't connect to the iCloud to do backups for my ipad and iphone and sync notes, and lastly, although not a big lost for me but still noticable is that the help center no longer able to find help if needed from the internet. oh yeah and the safari seems to work slower. I tried to search for any person that are in similar situation like me but no ane seems to be in one therefore I started this discussion. please help me out...
    to give you guys a heads up, looking at all the problems the patterns seems to relate with the apple connections only, I use a mid 2009 macbookpro from Australia, and I bought the mountaion lion from an indonesian appstore, currently my feelings leads to the fact that my mountain lions that are not bought from chinese mac appstore is the reasons, since i read from some articles that the mountain lions that were released in china are different witht he rest of the world.
    any help or solution in order to make my mac working normal again is very much welcome, cheers guys

  • Connecting two Acer monitors with VGA and DVI output to my Macbook Pro (mid 2010)

    Hi All,
    I need to connect 2 Acer monitors that have both VGA and DVI ports to my MacBook Pro.  What's the best way to do that?
    Thanks for your help!

    hey! Thats normal for notebook! That actually happens to almost all of us - as there are a small fraction of people with two and more thunderbolt displays or with newest rMBP and external multi-monitor setup.

  • I have just bought Macbookpro and when ı connect digital camera from firewire port ı never see the image at macbook pro.

    I have just bought the macbook pro. When i connect the digital camera (sony dxc-c33p) to mac from firewire port i never see this camera imovie or quick time programs. Macbook pro never connect the digital cameras via firewire port. What can i do to solve this problem?

    We are sony dealer for profesional medical products and i want to connect sony dxc-c33 digital camera to mac via firewire port. it is very interesting;
    1. i have new imac at the office with latest software. when i have connected the camera it worked perfect no problem.
    2. i have bought new macbook pro last week. when i connected the camera it didn't work.
    3. i have connected the camera to imac mini with latest software. it worked perfect no problem.
    4. finally i went to apple support office and we connected the camera and tried to take movie at four different brand new macbook pro but they didn't work.
    Also when we lived this problem we have already contacted with sony support and no problem from this side. Iam still thinking the problem is firewire port at macbook pro. Finally we contacted exclusive dealer of apple in my country but they didn't solve and understand the problem yet until today (it passed 15 days)

  • Canon MX860 get error 300 when printing wirelessly from MacBook Pro

    I've been printing wirelessly for several years and most recently after an upgrade to OS X 10.10.1 Yosemite it was printing fine until this morning. Something changed and I get error 300 when I try to print. If I connect my MacBook to the Canon MX860 printer using the USB cord it prints fine so I'm assuming it's some sort of wireless connection issue. I powered down and up both the printer and the Macbook and still get the error. I tried the "Reset Printer System" from the System Preferences and now I can't add the printer back in. I tried using the CD that came with the printer to reinstall the wireless connection and the set-up program says it's incompatible with my operating system and refuses to run. Any assistance to help me print wirelessly again would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

    After further investigation, we believe this is due to an intermittent  modem problem and is not the fault of the printer or MacBook.

  • Is it possible to connect a wireless keyboard so that it works automatically with either macbook pro or iPad depending on which is turned on or do I have to go through the delete one and re-pair the other process every time?

    Is it possible to connect a wireless keyboard so that it automatically connects to whichever previously paired device is turned on?

  • I am getting a printer message "on hold, Authentication required" when directly connected (USB) to any printer I try to install to my MacBook Pro.  Any ideas?

    I am having trouble with printing from my MacBook Pro.  After succesfully installing a printer, sending a print job results in a alert in the print que that says "on hold  Authentication Required" 
    I am fairly new to Mac and have not the slightest clue what I am doing wrong.  Please help!
    Thanks, Slojon

    After upgrading to OSX Mountain Lion on one of our home computers and having no difficulty with printer access for months, after a glitch involving loss of power, suddenly "On hold (authentication required)" started showing up.
    When I deleted the printer and then tried to add it back using the default listing for the printer I got the message "Unable to download the software from the server at this time."  I felt I was going backwards.  The whole situation was maddening for a couple of days. 
    Details:
    Older G5 Desktop Mac running OSX Snow Leopard wth an HP Color LaserJet 2550 attached via USB.
    Early 2011 13" MacBook Pro running OSX Mountain Lion. 
    Airport WiFi network.
    This is really two problems: how to add a printer successfully and how to print without authentication.
    How to add a printer
    Do not use the default listing for adding the printer that shows up in the popup menu, instead use the generic "Add printer" command, then select the printer and printer type from the secondary menu that comes up.  This worked fine for me.
    How to avoid the "Authentication required"
    Software update on both machines.
    Reset printing system (Option & minus "-" key) on both systems.
    Add the printer back to the server (older G5 Mac in my case) system.
    Ensure that both the printer sharing is selected for the printer and …
    … that printer sharing is turned on globally in the Sharing System Preferences
    Add the printer back to the client system
    I was also able to work this through the CUPS system described in other posts (http://localhost:631) but I always prefer to let Mac OSX handle the UNIX details since I have greater confidence I won't be inadvertantly messing something up. 

  • FCX won't recognize attached Canon GL2 while FW800 HDD is connected

    Heres the problem. I have a Lacie external HDD attached to my PowerBook G4 via Firewire 800 when I connect my Canon GL2 to the Firewire 400 port either on the Lacie HDD or PowerBook and start FCX FCX will not recognize the Canon GL2 as being attached.
    I want to be able to capture video to the external HDD instead of my internal HDD due to space issues.
    Also when I disconnect the etxernal HDD FCX recognizes the Canon GL2 immediately.
    Why doesn't FCX see the Canon GL2 when the external HDD is connected?
    I am running 10.4.9 with FCX 3.0.
    PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

    LaCie does not support the use of their drives with Canon cameras as long as they are both on the same bus because of the FireWire protocol used by that manufacturer. Macs only have one FireWire bus, though they may have multiple ports. Using your PowerBook you can add a second FireWire bus putting on into to your cardbus slot. This will give you two separate buses and the computer will be able to address the devices separately.

  • Unable to connect to Canon printer MG4270 by one particular MacBook Pro

    Dear friend,
    MacBook Pro bought in  mid 2010, Intel Core 2 Duo, OS X 10.9.4 (13E28)
    The OS X was re-installed after the disk was erased.
    The Canon printer MG4270 was connected to the Airport Time Capsule using WiFi.
    Through Apple Store, Canon Inkjet printer software update V3.0 has been installed.
    Canon IJ Network Tool V4.4.0 has been installed.
    When I add the printer, the printer cannot be connected. See the captured image.
    I have  2 other MacBook Pros of newer models; they can connect and print to the printer. One of them is just purchased 2 weeks ago. I have successfully installed the printer.
    Thanks,
    Danny

  • I have a Canon Rebel T3i and I need to tether into my Macbook Pro. How can I do that?

    I have a Canon Rebel T3i and I need to tether into my Macbook Pro. How can I do that? I updated my iPhoto to recongize my camera, it does. When connected I see it in the USB utlitiy. But my MacBook Pro says "no camera found." What do I need to do to fix this problem?

    Thanks, Kappy
    I was fooling around with Lightroom and it has a tethering option. I tried it and it worked. But I am still reading my camera manual as you recommeded.

  • I am connected to a time capsule both wirelessly and through ethernet...and state of the time capsule is solid green...the internet however doesn't work...The internet works fine when directly connected to my macbook pro but it won't work through the tc

    I have deleted time machine preferences...restarted the modem a bunch of times, restored time capsule to it's original settings...after I first set it up in Airport Ulitity its shows a page quickly that states there is a internet problem, but the page quickly goes away before I can read what it says exaclty and states the internet connection problem is resolved...
    However it's not resolved, I'm also having trouble doing a back up to my time capsule...I recently purchased a new macbook and retrieved/restore what was on the time capsule to the new computer...that worked fine...wireless worked fine...however when I tried to back up the new macbook...it would faii stating that there isn't enough room on the TC to do a back up...
    I didn't end up keeping the new macbook, I was just using it/trying it out while my current macbook pro was being repaired (logic board)
    Ever since I got my current macbook back from repair...my backups have failed due to their not being enough space to perform the back up...in the past the back ups would happen and old back ups would be replaced...
    I think this has to do with my current computer having a new name after the repair..."Adam's macbook pro 2" vs "Adam's macbook pro"
    The internet was working fine wirelessly through the TC a day ago, but it wasn't allowing my other laptop that was connected via ethernet access to the internet...I had a self assigned IP address error then...I don't have that problem now, but it's not transmitting internet at all...even though it's in a solid green state.
    I have no problem completely wiping out my TC including the previous back ups on it...just don't know how to go about it...I have restored it to factory settings a bunch of times and created the network from scratch...just hasn't fixed the issue
    Is there more prefences files I should delete

    If the modem is also a router, either use the modem in bridge and run pppoe client on the TC.. that is assuming ADSL or similar eg vdsl. If it is cable service.. and the modem is a router, then bridge the TC.. go to internet page and select connect by ethernet and below that set connection sharing to bridge.
    Please tell us more about the modem if the above gives you issues.
